Dried Greens? you mean like spinach, kale and collards? Do you just add them to soups and smoothies? How do you use dried greens?
Like kale leaves and magenta spreen lambsquarters leaves.
I use them in all the usual ways after rehydrating. So, in soups or stir frys or as a side dish. If you are not using in soup, you soak in water to rehydrate.
Most of the time, I have fresh greens actually just growing in the garden, but there are times when the kale has bolted and the magenta spreen is not growing yet, so for those shoulder seasons, it is good to have some in jars ready to use. High vitamin greens are my major go to vegetable. Also, just for preparedness, a small amount of the greens will provide alot of vitamins. I dry low heat, so they are basically a raw food just full of all the nutrients of fresh greens.
I know people may not use dehydrated vegetables in a stir fry, but you should try it. Often if I do this, it is a mix, so maybe carrots ( not dehydrated) and re-hydrated kale, re-hydrated cabbage, if lucky a few pieces of re-hydrated peppers. An egg or two for protein, with a simple stor fry sauce over rice. Or, instead of egg for protein, a peanut sauce, which is realy easy, base is peanut butter and hot water in equal amounts, some vinegar, soysauce, cayenne
I dont make smoothies, but you could absolutely rehydrate greens and then drain and add to smoothies
